Theres a $150ish Blu-Ray Vizio player that has Blu-Ray Live and you can update the firmware I believe. But if you want games obviously the PS3 is still the way to go.

Edit: It's $188 and a Wal-Mart exclusive. Currently that's a bit high I rather buy a PS3 at that price point, but I believe they will drop a bit thanks to the PS3 price cut.

It's just that simple.

Cheaper BR players often have compatibility problems with newer BR movies(some don't even have firmware updates, or the ability to go online), and almost always "freeze" as in, stop motion for upwards of 6 seconds as often as ever 30 minutes. Again, the upscaling features of each BR player differ vastly in quality as well as available outputs.

A BR player isn't like an HDMI cord. The ones that cost 500 dollars, cost 500 dollars for a reason, and the ones that cost 100 dollars, cost 100 dollars because they suck.

I'm not embellishing this. Don't waste your money.

And the ones that cost $300 are still the best on the market

...because BR has nothing to do with Sony, right?

Dude, stop trying to derail the thread with your ignorant presumptions and accusations, and either address the OP, or quiet down.

Yeah, the PS3 PHAT is the best BR player on the market. I won't speak for the slim until it's been proven.
